Marignons side of the argument is this.
We came to the aid of Arco, fought and won a long and hard war against Jomon, nearing the end of the war when Jomon was broken and the victor (i.e. Me) was taking the spoils of her war EA pan starts taking Jomon undefended provinces...a cowardly and opportunistic move.
We sign a NAP with EA pan wanting a time of peace and fearing their masses (seriously theres thousands of them, look at the graph) which he agreed to...this was a ruse to bring his full armies to our border, he then cancels our NAP and attacks...no doubt expecting his mass rush tactics that worked so well against Mictlan and Pythium to work.....We gave him the chance to reconsider...but hellbent on war he attacked.
He now realises that his armies of chaff are no match for my forces.
I'm sure if you look earlier in this thread you will see he broke a NAP with Mictlan without warning.
Basically EA pan has no honour and his words is worthless, if you would associate yourself with such a nation, then do not cry foul when he backstabs when it is to his advantage.
LA pan is not much better, having a long standing NAP (since March 12th) we believed all was well, we could coexist peacefully, he then launchs a join attack with EA pan. "Forgetting" a NAP is no defense or excuse for such a heinous and dishonourble action.
Now I call the other worthy nations TC, MA pan, Machaka and Ryleh to stand against these nations....If Marignon were to fall their empowered nations would target one of you to gank next.
At least with Marignon you know where you stand and know a pact is a pact.
